now pullets are young hens right?? And if it helps the white chicken you think might be white rock weighs about 5 pounds and lays small white eggs. Its legs are gray!!!
Oh she wouldn't be a rock then! They lay brown eggs and are rather hefty. She must be a leghorn - though they usually lay large eggs unless she is just young. Pullets = young hens :)
 
Oh oh oh lol the three small chicks the two solid white and one with black all came from the same chicken. .. Well I was told that lol I bought from a private breeder! And they are all same size so could they all three be tetra tints?

One hen could have been covered by more than one male making different looking chicks. Also, more than one hen can lay in a nest to be hatched and brooded by one hen. So they may even have different mothers and/or fathers. Tetra tints are a cross of a white leghorn hen and a RIR roo. It is possible that they are all tetra tints since apparently they can have brown markings as well as black or none at all. Not very helpful. They also lay a tinted egg, or off white. Maybe compare that little white egg with a white store egg and see if its just off color.
